LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- When "The Sopranos" finally arrives next year for its sixth season, fans of the HBO mob drama will get more than they expected.
Eight "bonus" episodes are planned in addition to the 12 previously announced for the series, set to return in March 2006 after nearly two years without a first-run episode, HBO said Thursday.
"When something is as remarkable as 'The Sopranos,' our audience would like to see it continue as long as possible, so we are thrilled that (series creator) David Chase felt there are more stories to be told," HBO Chairman Chris Albrecht said in a statement.
There will be a break between the first set of episodes and the arrival of the extra eight hours in January 2007, HBO said. (HBO, like CNN, is a unit of Time Warner.)
The premium cable channel avoided tagging the newly announced episodes as part of a seventh season and also declined to label them the final ones.
The upcoming season was to have been the series' last but there have been hints the end wasn't necessarily in sight.
With powerhouse series "Sex and the City" gone and "Six Feet Under" about to wrap, HBO would be glad to keep "The Sopranos" alive, but the series' fate is considered to be in Chase's hands.
"The Sopranos" stars James Gandolfini as mob boss Tony Soprano and Edie Falco as his wife, Carmela. The series, which won four Emmy Awards including best drama series in 2004, isn't competing this year because it didn't air during the eligibility period.
The intermission between last season and the upcoming one will end up totaling a viewer-frustrating 21 months: The fifth year concluded in June 2004, although reruns have been airing.

I'm with you...I can't wait, but I was wondering, do you guys think they know what they are doing with the long delays between new shows?
it seems to me some folks might get pissed off, some might not want to bother with the wait, and others might have such high expectations after waiting so long that even the BEST and most exciting shows could come as a disappointment.

Me too.

And if they say this isn't necessarily it, we could be looking at the equivalent of another season after that.

SOPRANOS isn't like most television shows in which the long wait turns people off. It's like STAR WARS. When a STAR WARS movie was finished, people didn't forget about the series because it took three years to resolve each story.
The reason they do it is it's because it's the only way they can keep the actors coming back. They get almost two years off, then they come back and film for another three months. They keep increasing the paychecks, the show keeps going. That's what happens.
Personally, I hope it goes for more and more seasons. It's my second-favorite show in history...

I hope it continues too. There is so much potential with the characters they have created.
I love when they have different famous people writing and directing too. Thats cool shit right there.
